Far Hills inspires academic excellence and life skills such as resourcefulness, resilience, integrity, self-control, and a myriad of other invaluable traits that lay the foundation for lifelong success. We call that RIGOR.

Our traditional, rigorous curriculum in reading, writing, languages, math, and science is designed and taught by dedicated specialists. A variety of active, engaging, hands-on teaching methods are combined to provide intimate, individualized, level-specific education designed to unlock each child's potential.

The balance of individual achievement and teamwork. The ability to win gracefully, and lose with honor. Respect for leaders, and the courage to lead. These are only a few of the relevant life lessons that are stressed in our athletics program. Far Hills athletics focus on building strong bodies—and strong characters.

Far Hills is a vibrant community with its own culture and code of honor. Students, parents, grandparents, faculty, alumni, and friends come together to create a unique, family-like environment that encourages involvement at all levels.

Smart Fun Camps focus on a variety of activities that allow families to customize their children's camp time with family summer plans by providing flexible programs one-week in length and by offering before and aftercare options for busy parents.

Help us make your Far Hills donation GO FAR. Many corporations support their employee's philanthropic contributions, including those to private schools. Matching gifts allow you to double or triple the impact of your donations. Some companies even match gifts made by retirees and/or employee's spouses.

Type in your company’s name below to learn if it has a matching gift program that can benefit Far Hills. If no information is generated, please check with your HR manager to confirm what charitable donations your company may match.

Yes, it’s not too late! Many companies allow employees to submit match requests for up to one year following the date of the donation. Check with your HR manager regarding specific donation periods and policies.

It is still possible that your employer will match your donation if you don’t find your company in our search feature. The best way to find out is to check with your company’s HR manager and ask if your donation to a private primary/middle school can be matched.

Absolutely! During the 2016–17 academic year, companies matched over $13,000 worth of gifts for Far Hills. We estimate that there is at least another $25,000 that has not been filed by Far Hills donors with their company’s matching gift programs.

If your company has an online donation system administered through your Intranet or a matching gift portal, paperwork is automatically forwarded to Far Hills when you enter your donation amount. If matching gifts are handled directly by your HR department, you will need to obtain a matching gift form and submit this with your Far Hills donation. We will handle the rest of the submission request from our end. If you have any questions, contact Gretchen Hilton at 908-766-0766 x 1460.

This is a list of companies that have matched Far Hills donors’ gifts over the last few years. Please do not view this as a comprehensive list of companies that will donate to Far Hills – you should speak with your HR manager to check your company’s guidelines.
